Romano Ward Syndrome, also known as long QT syndrome (LQTS), is a rare genetic disorder affecting the heart's electrical system. LQTS is characterized by an abnormality in the heart's repolarization process, leading to potential life-threatening irregular heart rhythms. While "Romano Ward Syndrome" is a specific term used to describe this condition, it is also referred to as "congenital LQTS", "hereditary LQTS", or simply "long QT syndrome". These terms are often used interchangeably to describe the disorder. It is important for individuals with a family history of Romano Ward Syndrome to seek medical attention and get themselves screened for early detection and appropriate management of the syndrome.
